Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup chickpea flour
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper plus more to taste
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/4 cup olive oil plus more as needed
- 1 large yellow onion diced
- 25 cremini mushrooms sliced into thick slices
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup Marsala wine
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
Instructions
-
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pound evenly using a mallet of rolling pin until approximately approximately 1/4-inch thick. Once flattened, season both sides with the sea salt and ground black pepper.
-
In a shallow bowl, combine the chickpea flour, salt, pepper and dried herbs.
-
Heat the oil on medium-high in a large skillet. Dredge the chicken in the seasoned chickpea flour, shaking off the excess.
-
Saute the chicken for approximately 4-6 minutes on each side until golden, turning once and repeating with other side. Remove the chicken and set aside.
-
Add the onion to the drippings in the pan and sauté until sweating, about 5 minutes. Next, add the mushrooms and garlic and sauté until the mushrooms are nicely browned and the moisture has evaporated, about 6-8 minutes.
-
Pour the Marsala wine in the pan and bring to a boil.
-
Cook until the liquid has reduced, approximately 6-8 minutes. Add the chicken stock and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce again.
-
Return the chicken to the pan, cooking 2-3 more minutes while the chicken heats through. You may choose to let it simmer an additional 5 minutes to evaporate more liquid.
-
Season with salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.
